Sampling Confirms High Grade Silver Targets at Ainsworth
06 Januar 2021 - 2:30PM
George Sanders, President of Goldcliff Resource Corporation
(“Goldcliff” or the “Company”) (GCN: TSX.V, GCFFF: OTCBB PINKS)
reports that rock sampling values as high as 359 g/t silver confirm
strong silver grades in the areas around two historic workings on
Goldcliff’s Ainsworth silver project located near Kaslo, British
Columbia. Results were recently received from a brief detailed
geochemical rock, soil, and drainage sediment sampling programme
conducted during the first week of October 2020. A total of 38 rock
samples and 18 lithic drainage samples (LDS) were collected from
areas focused on the Cedar Creek canyon and the region around the
old No. 1 mine and Silver Hoard workings as well as the area
between the two historic mines. The No. 1 mine was the largest
silver producer in the Ainsworth camp and B.C. Minfile records
report a recovered grade of 49.6 oz per ton silver. The Silver
Hoard is located 800 metres north of the No. 1. Although Minfile
records list it as a producer, it would be better understood today
as a prospect bulk sample. The recorded grade at Silver Hoard was
just over 101 oz per ton silver.
At Silver Hoard, a black, manganiferous breccia outcrop sample
yielded 359 g/t Ag. Upslope and west of the No.1 mine adit, a
partially buried sample of rusty sub-crop in a recently logged area
returned 355 g/t Ag and 4.73% Zn. Two LDS samples taken below the
No.1 mine adit and below the mine dump yielded 825 g/t Ag and 498
g/t Ag respectively, with both also displaying highly anomalous
base metal values. A soil sampling line was run between the No.1
and Silver Hoard workings with B-horizon soil samples taken at 25,
50 and 100 metre intervals. Twenty-four of the 36 soil samples
returned values in excess of 1 g/t Ag. A sample taken below the No.
1 mine returned values of 251 g/t Ag.
Goldcliff plans follow up work this spring which will include an
airborne geophysical survey and additional prospecting. Further
exploration activity will be designed around the Direct Shipping
exploitation model. Ainsworth is approximately 120 kilometres from
the Teck-Cominco smelter in Trail, B.C. There are also several
small flotation mills in southern B.C.
The Ainsworth land position was acquired by staking and
Goldcliff owns the claims 100% with no royalties or work
commitments. The Company has maintained the claims in good standing
for over a decade pending a silver price environment in excess of
US$20 per ounce.
